really want a singular pegasus, and the only way itll ever happen is to sell my pride and joy :-/

its the actual frame that was reviewed in the mag a couple of years or so ago. id say its in good condition and hasnt been used as much as it should. no dings or damage, decals are peeling off a bit tho.

how much am i likely to get towards the pegasus would you say?

cheers

£22 but I'll offer you £25 out of the kindness of my heart for a fast sale. Email in profile 😉

(ok, based on it being two years old, probably around half of what you paid, maybe up to 2/3 if it really is in good condition (peeling stickers doesn't sound good though...) but expensive frames seem to hold their value poorly IME)

For perspective I purchased one off here for for just under a grand...it was about 6mts old at the time...don't really know anything about Singular Peg but sounds like a bit of downgrade compared too the Moots.

If your selling, it useful to know that Moots can refurbish the frame (decals / YBB thingy etc.)

Such a rarely wanted thing, no estimate is going to be accurate.

I'd love to take it off your hands if I had anything approaching what I think it's worth (around a grand I'd say tops - I'm afraid purchase price just doesn't help... though I think the YBB would be more valuable than a suspension bike of a similar age, as it's not affected by technology changes so much).

ok thanks. i was going to guess around the grand mark, and thats been borne out by a few people ive talked to now. just taken a few pics, and had a good look at frame, and decals arent really peeling much at all. just a bit of the transparent over-layer if anything. the moots seatpost is peeling a bit more, and thats probably what i was thinking of.

pegasus is maybe a bit of a downgrade, but i just really want one 😉 bought the YBB for the squidge at the back, and id probably regret selling it if it goes. my poor back would anyways 🙂 but i just love my swift, and love the look of the pegasus so fancied a bit of a change.

thanks all 🙂
